We’re closing in on two decades of Republicans telling you, in no uncertain terms, that they do not care about kids being shot dead. In schools, in movie theaters, at church, in the street. They. Do. Not. Care. But hey, at least they’re good at racism and destroying the economy, amirite.

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

We're long overdue for something to collapse America's cultural hegemony and "say mean things about God's Precious Baby Trump we'll make you sorry if you ever come here" sure seems like it might do the trick.

Mean tweets about US policy might mean no trip to Disneyland, under a new proposal that would see Australians provide their social media history for the past five years.

If the new map had gone into effect, the GOP voting strength in Indiana would have been so diluted that a wave election with high Dem turnout would have wiped out their majority overnight.
This wasn't about defying Trump so much as saving their own asses.

Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

And because the extra year of Windows 10 support Microsoft made available still requires jumping through hoops lots of people are running Windows 10 unsupported.
Which means Microsoft has left who knows how many machines open to becoming malware bots or worse. Why?

See, with a case this high profile the cops needed to be sure it was air tight. Dot the i's, cross the t's.
And instead they just blundered along like this was a regular arrest that nobody would call them on.

As someone who was alive in an era where technology actually made things better and was worth the investment, it has been galling to sit through *almost two decades* of seeing the entire sector turned into an infinite money glitch.
One thing I learned over the weekend from talking to finance people is that they assume the AI bubble is going to burst and their issue is figuring out when so they can time their trades right.

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.
